End of A Thought

It started with obsessions.
Then came the arm in arms,
The sunsets on the rocks –
A symphony of waves and wind
In the background.
It played to a pair of mingling hearts

We didn’t know the words,
The Thought ran through us both.
The night came to an end and
two became one.

There were kisses.
Then came the hand in hands,
The talks and drives –
A laptop and Fall Out Boy
for the road.
Time tied us together.

We found the words,
The Thought ran through us both.
Just weeks after we started
We called it Love.

There was sex.
Things we’d never believed,
Never dreamed of doing –
A shower was shared
And bed sheets ruffled.
Experiences tightened our knot.

We forgot the words,
The thought was just for him.
A month and a day later
He called it to an end.

There were tears.
The sunset burned,
The laptop sounded dull
No matter how I saw it
Nothing was the same.
Our hearts were torn.

We thought it was time to end,
but it felt so wrong.
Why was this true
If it came with such hurt?

There are memories.
Here come the lonely drives,
your ghost by my side –
No matter how hard I try
I fail.
You can’t kiss the hand of a ghost.

Love was an idea,
Nothing but a Thought.
This is the end of our Thought,
one I’ll never forget.
